I find it interesting that all of the arguments seem to be about the merits of whether pushing this on everyone is good or not, and they all take for granted that personal freedom does not matter anymore.
I dislike not being able to choose my SSL lifetime for the same reason I do not like a web browser deciding for me if I can use my own CA. In both cases choices are being made for me, whether I like them or not.
